From 1999 to 2021, WCOQ was WZKZ, inheriting a call sign and country music format that had previously been heard on WNKI in Corning, New York. It was owned by Robert Pfunter's Pembrook Pines Media Group until Pfunter sold the station to Sound Communications in the mid-2010s.[4]

The station's call sign was changed to WCOQ on June 17, 2021. In July 2021, WCOQ was included on a list of stations Family Life Network intended to acquire from Sound as part of its exit from New York radio.[5]
